Phew. After the seriousness of the last post, I figured we needed to get back to the crazy. I do apologise for the rare as rocking horse poop seriousness of the previous mentioned post, but just like when I wear my straitjacket, I had to get it off of my chest.
So how do you follow a post like the last? Well, you read about the Turkish city of “Batman” who are suing Warner Bros for using their name without permission. They have a point though. Look at the following two images and well…it is like one image is looking in to a mirror:
Batman Turkey Warner Bros Version of Batman
I have no ideal how true this is, but if it is true, then I think I need a piece of this pie. If they can indeed sue for something as crazy as that, then I am getting my best suing suit out and having a chat with Hanna-Barbera Productions over the legality of using one of my previous lives. One I thought was gone forever until they dragged me through the mud on national TV.
In a previous life as a caveman, I singlehandedly figured out that I could build something that could float on water. I called it a “Boat”. And while on my “Boat”, I called myself captain. I was pretty impressive if I am brutally honest.
When I was not on my boat, I would walk around with my club in my hand and saying “You can call me Captain. Check out my club ladies!”. I got the nickname of “Jumped up little bag of crap”, but later it got changed to “Captain Caveman”.
Now you just tell me. Where do Hanna-Barbera Productions get off with stealing my name and making me some hairy neanderthal with an awesome voice instead of the amazing guy with a weird voice?
I am pretty sure that I can successfully sue them over this. I mean, who doesn’t believe in reincarnation? No court is going to throw this case out. It is slander. Just look at their captain caveman. Where is his captain’s hat? Yeah sure…he has his club, but you don’t see a boat. They took my good character and made a cartoon me who is a little less intelligent than a tomato.
Captain Caveman ME!
Of course, back to the whole Batman thing. My favourite part of this STORY is, and I quote,
The mayor says the film’s success has had a psychological impact on the city’s inhabitants which he blames for a number of unsolved murders and a high female suicide rate.
So it seems that if you live in Batman and are a man, you are going to get murdered. But if you are a female, your bludgeoning to death is put down to suicide. That’s clever!
“No serial killer round here guv’nor. They all keep topping themselves” Mr J T Ripper was quoted as saying about the women.
